In a multi ethnic country like nigeria, for what actually is the turn of another southern tribe about the size of the yorubas, your people are celebrating and praising what appears to be a Grand act of tribal supremacism, tribal bigotism. Killing any chance this nation has at breeding citizens that are truly nationalistic or patriotic. Allowing these selfish and greedy politicians to set yoruba people up for legitimate generational hatred by other southern nigerian tribes while yet again doubling down on the already known belief that this country is more or less a jungle where nothing counts or matters.

We already know that having a Yoruba president does not and will not change the life of the average yoruba man, rather his friends and immediate family only enrich themselves. However we all as nigerians lose when we miss an opportunity to bring us together, an opportunity at nation building, at making steps towards true nationalism and having citizens that truly feel that they matter and we are going somewhere.

I hope learned and high IQ yorubas start speaking out now, silence is culpability. Truly no one nigerian tribe is better than the other. We are all fxcked within these walls. We have to be making steps towards the right direction, dont let these greedy politicians fool you by invoking tribal sentiments, we all know they honestly dont care about tribe, they are only after their selfish interest.

Atleast the hausas were honest and good enough to rotate the presidency down south. Nothing good can come off taking or bullying yourself off another tribes turn.

Please, is anybody stopping any tribe from contesting in the 2023 presidential election? While you are here wailing unnecessarily, Atiku have bought form yesterday

So this is how you want people to give you the presidential ticket Free, without fighting for it

Coward man.

You should rather direct your vituperation to your lord (Atiku) coz he is the only obstacle to an Ibo presidency.

If this is how you think Ibo presidency will be realized, that means you haven’t learnt from the failure of your political progenitors.

Stop behaving like slaves. Buy form, come out and contest.
Okorocha, OUK, Umahi, Obi, etc are contesting from the South East. Help them and support them to win party tickets.

You want APC to zone it's ticket to the South East so that's you can vote Atiku in PDP. You are very stupid.

UstazAhmed:
Shame to PDP thieves

I think, it's PDP that took them to court?

Road is clear....
Let's go there

Modified Response:
To those quoting me and talking about mistakes of certain tribes of the past as a reason why we should respond with more mistakes please understand this: I am not from the South East and I am speaking as a Nigerian> And I want to tell you that the future of Nigerians and our well being is greater than any single person's Emotional Judgement or Ambition.

Life itself is supposed to be about positive Evolution, why should we allow a mistake to happen now simply because a similar mistake happened in the past. Where is the positive growth in that?

This country is supposed to be a working progress of a coalition of African tribes to build something that someday we can proud of. We may not have chosen to all be in this box but the reality is that we are, and we have gotten used to surviving on each others trust and co-operation. The way forward is not allowing selfish politicians to set us up to making a Fundamental mistake and setting us a generation backwards on this our Nigerian Project.

Regardless of what you have convinced yourself to belief, the average Nigerian Yoruba or not needs the support of every other nigerian tribe to thrive either as an employer or an employee. For almost 8years I have had a northerner as an investor in my company and also as my gateman - my life would change for the worse if either of them chooses to leave. Thanks to Nairaland and APC, bigots have become emboldened in this country in the last 10years. If APC believes they did not get enough support from the south East, sidelining the region as a response is the dumbest reaction, because the south east is part of nigeria. How can you then claim to be a national party if they are ok with sideling a region.

If you are not planning on running away from this country in the nearest future, if you want your children and grandchildren to not go through the same amount of poverty and suffering as our parents and this generation is going through then you have a civic duty to stand up now and speak your truth. We may not be able to control the stealing of every public official but something as basic as equity and fairness we should not be toying with so we can continue to hope and dream about the destination we want this country to get to and everyone watching from the outside can see that we are serious about becoming a great nation.

You have quoted out of what Ohaneze Youth Council (OYC) Said, without giving them credit for it, that is PLAGIARISM!

To the part that you added (Modified Response), you were just dilly-dallying about, too afraid to hit the nail on the head.
And the reason people like you do that is because you know, ab initio, that your position is not only faulty, your wish is unreasonable.

You go around threatening other tribes, just because you want something from them, how about appealing to them?
How about convincing them with superior arguments?
How about lobbying them?
How about building bridges with them?
How about even sacrificing for them first, so you can reap from such sacrifices, in the future?

Granted that Igbos have not produced a Nigerian President in the last 50yrs, (which is no one's fault but Igbos) and other tribes think Igbos should be supported to achieve this aim, does that mean it will be dropped on your laps?
This country does not operate a "fixed" Rotational Presidency by FIAT, what we have is a "Democracy by Consensus", that moves the Presidency between the North and South.

At the end of the day, Nigerians still have to VOTE, to elect their President.
What that means is that the Igbo Presidential Nominee can only become President, if he can convince majority of Nigerians to vote for him in a General Election.
Thus, can you convince other tribes to Vote for an Igbo Presidential Nominee, by THREATENING THEM or INSULTING THEM?

Some years back, we were shouting that Igbos need to "play their Politics wisely" and not put all their Eggs in One basket, during their rabid support for PDP over the years. They made enemies of other tribes just because Goodluck Jonathan was kicked out of Office.
They all vote in Bloc for PDP, irrespective of who PDP puts on the Ballot.
Essentially, the South East became a PDP stronghold, they will Vote for only PDP (and APGA in Anambara), they dont even want to hear anything called APC/ACN/AD. We told them that even if you are angry about PDP losing the 2015 elections, dont take it personal or take it out on Yorubas or Northerners but they wont hear.

Unfortunately, the PDP where they sowed Sweat and Blood, is treating them like a Pariah, it will not even one its Presidential Ticket to the East! What a Shame!! Imagine, a Northerner has just finished Eight years as President and the PDP is selling Forms to Atiku, a Northerner, again.
Even more shameful is the rationale of Igbos that if Yorubas dont "give them" APC Presidential Ticket, they would vote for Atiku to become President!
The problem with such mentality of "We or the Highway", is that it shows that Igbos are not really convinced that they deserve to be President of Nigeria, what they are actually more interested in, is that a Yoruba person should not be the next President!
That is what we call Politics of Hate and Envy. If l cant have it, then l wont allow you to have it.
What a Shame.

If you cant display Loyalty, dont expect anyone to be Loyal to you.
If you cant sacrifice for others, dont expect Others to sacrifice for you, when your time of need for such sacrifice comes.
If you wont vote for a tribe or Party, dont expect that Tribe or Party to hand over its Presidential ticket to you, on a Platter of Gold, No matter how deserving of it you think you are. Such sense of entitlement is delusional and wishful-thinking.

Igbos can decide to do what is right, it may take some time to yield the desired result but yield it will will or they can continue to threaten others, cry and whinge all day or try to intimidate others, hoping some miracle will happen and they will suddenly become President of "the Zoo".
It is not too late to start doing the right thing, where there is a Will, there should be a way but voting for Atiku, just to Spite Yorubas, will NEVER get any Igbo, anywhere near Aso Rock and History has shown that the Yorubas somehow, even without Igbo support, still manage to Sit as President in Aso Rock.

Igbos need to reflect deeply.

My post was intended to reach yoruba people and indeed all nigerians who see the future of this country as something that should be bigger than anyones current emotions or ambition, however I still appreciate the fact that I got your attention.

Look i see so many yorubas saying igbos were caught up with politics of hate in 2015 which is the reason for their current predicament. But I worry Yorubas are now sleep walking into the same mistake and not even knowing it.

I believe most of you havent thought about an alternate reality that Tinubu's attempt to bully himself into the presidency will cause PDP members to rally around Atiku as their consensus candidate. Tinubu can not win against Atiku in the next election. Buharu will not help him to rig against a fellow Fulani, neither will northerners vote tinubu instead Atiku, Tinubu has also used his own mouth to write off the SS and SE saying their votes are inconsequential, so no vote for him in these places. Atiku's running mate is an Igbo man and Atiku has promised to Hand over to an Igbo man after 1 year. The same hateful politics that saw Yorubas occupy both VP and House Speaker might be visited on the Yorubas. And the cycle of Political Hate and Vengeance continues. But Nigeria and Nigerians lose.

Regardless of the political outcome of the nearest future, One thing I will assure you is that people like me will continue to always be here to call out the rights and the wrongs and speak for whichever tribe is being oppressed.

Have a Fruitful week!
